Customer Reviews

read the books in the correct order

This book is a good one from Susan, but as a new reader of her books it would have been helpful to know that most of her books intertwine. Read this book second, as "Home Fires" is when we first meet Daniel as a boy with his step mom and this book is him as an adult. I read "One Lonely Night" first then "Most Wanted Bachelor" followed by "Home Fires" and I wish I had read them in order. The trilogy is wonderful and I really like Susan's books. This book is wonderfully written and really rings true. It is an age old story of what some women will do for her family, even marry a rich man so that her family will no longer suffer from poverty. Kathryn goes after Daniel for all the wrong reasons, money and revenge for her dad, but does fall in love with him. I must say, Kathryn is a great character, she knew what she wanted and knew what she had to do to get it! It is the age old story of a woman using her "gifts" to snag a man. More power to her. I can't wait till another book comes out. I recommend this book to her fans..but do yourself a favor and read "Home Fires" before this book. The trilogy comes together nicely and you want to read all three in one sitting.

The Most Wanted Bachelor

Excellent book, puts the two characters together quickly but you actually get to see things play out and see the happily ever after!

Wonderful Romance!

Daniel and Kathryn really come to life in this story about a woman who plans to marry for money without telling her future husband that it's his cash she's after and not him. Daniel finds out too late that the "one woman in the world who doesn't even know he's a millionaire" is, in fact, a gold-digger. Of course, since this is Susan Kay Lw, there's a whole lot mor going on in both these characters than originally meets the eye. In my opinion, Ms Law is the best Americana writer today. She writes sexy, heartfelt stories about real people and I can't wait for the next one!

Stupendous writing

In 1887 Denver, Kathryn Jordan believes she needs to marry a wealthy man to save her family from poverty. She chooses the enigmatic Daniel Hall as her future spouse because his father destroyed her father, leaving Kathryn, her sister, and their mother in these dire circumstances.Many poor people and reporters anticipate Daniel's arrival in town. While waiting for Daniel to come, a journalist interviews Kathryn and mentions that the next day Daniel is leaving town for Minnesota by stage. Kathryn enters the stagecoach with the intention of gaining Daniel's interest. The reporter is on the stage, but Daniel is not there. Outlaws hold up the stage stranding the reporter who is actually Daniel and Kathryn. They walk to a nearby town to await the next stage, but instead fall in love, make love, and marry. However, she knows his true identity and is worrying what will happen her to their relationship once he learns the truth.RWA Golden Heart award winner Susan K. Law writes an entertaining western romance starring a brave but poor heroine and a troubled but wealthy hero. The story line is fast-paced and picturesquely describes late nineteenth century Colorado. Kathryn and Daniel are a wonderful duo whose relationship shakily rests on top of a weak foundation. The support cast provides depth to the plot and motivation to the lead protagonists. When it comes to excellence in Americana romances, Ms. Law remains a law onto herself.Harriet Klausner
